KSH,

I'm just like you, I started tearing up watching her go through the first transition! Imagine how much I will be blubbering when she finishes!

What time will she cross the finish line? She is 2 hours behind CST... right?

And, how did you watch the transition? Was the feed on the transition area before?

[Nanci]

She has until 3AM EDST, 2AM CDST, 1AM MDST, 12AM MST.

I am going to bed now. Hopefully I will be wakened by a phone call before 3:00...

I've been thinking about Denise all day - I am in total awe at what she's already done!

Denise - when you read this - you are a truly amazing and courageous woman!

Is anyone still getting video? My screen is black. Did it get dark there, and no lighting, or is it just me???

[Lise]

Yeah, my screen is black, too. Sound, fine. Visual, non-existent. It's an imperfect technology, I'll give 'em that! L.

[ladyfish]

I want to hang in to at least see her time on the first lap (the 8.6 mile) she should be getting close now.

[Blueberry]

Looks like her split time for the first 8.6 miles is 2:11:08. Still hanging in there!!!

Go, Go, gO, GO!!!!!!

Edit - OK - I'm confused - it's showing a finish place of 1806, but no 2nd time for the running... Anyone?????

[Lise]

I just saw that! Here's the link to the page where you can track her:

I am not sure why there is a place there for her. Maybe that is where is in placing after what she has finished?

Looking at her run pace, she might be walking the marathon? I hope she finishes in 16 hours as she planned.

Here was her projected run time:

Run. Here is the big ???. In training I managed a perfect run/walk combo that came out to 11:30-12:00 minute miles. I should be able to keep that up for at least the first half. My first half should be about 2 hours 40 minutes. Then add on a good few ticks on the last half as I KNOW I'll slow down. This is based on my marathon history. So first 13.1 should be 2:40, last 13.1 around 3 hours.

Here's the result page...

She's listed in place 1849 with "ath" beside her name (and I'm pretty sure it isn't athlete - though she certainly qualifies as that and more). Any clue what that means?? I think this page updates a little more regularly than the athlete profile page...

It looks like they are estimating finish numbers based on their total time after the 1st lap of the run. I did a search on Women 35-39 and the woman behind Denise is listed as finishing one number after Denise's posted number.

[Geonz]

My guess is "Athena" - since the other additions are CLY whihc would be for "Clydesdale." If you're over a certain size you get to compete with the other big shots. Maybe they're grouped separately for splits, too.

[ladyfish]

It also seemed to take forever for them to post her time. I think she should have finished that first lap before 10:30pm EST, but it didn't post until much later. Don't think I'll be able to hang in for the finish.

GO GIRL!!! We're all cheering for you!

[Blueberry]

Sue-

Just learned something about triathalons (can anyone tell I haven't done one??? ).

Go Denise, Go!!!
